How I learned to stop worrying and love calcineurin - pp527 - 528

Carlos Balet Sindreu & Daniel R Storm

doi:10.1038/nn0508-527

Many kinases have been implicated in memory formation, but a new study suggests that a phosphatase, calcineurin, is important for the long-lasting nature of emotional memories by making them resistant to extinction.

Fire in the hole: pore dilation of the capsaicin receptor TRPV1 - pp528 - 529

Diana Bautista & David Julius

doi:10.1038/nn0508-528

The capsaicin receptor TRPV1 is important in pain sensation. A new study suggests that this nonselective cation channel shows dynamic alterations in ion permeability, which may contribute to mechanisms of pain hypersensitivity.

The need for a cool head: reversible inactivation reveals functional segregation in auditory cortex - pp530 - 531

Christian J Sumner, Alan R Palmer & David R Moore

doi:10.1038/nn0508-530

'What' and 'where' pathways are recognized in the visual system, but do they exist in auditory cortex? A new study uses reversible inactivation to demonstrate a double dissociation between two cortical regions in two tasks.

A volume control for the sense of smell - pp531 - 533

doi:10.1038/nn0508-531

Animals can discriminate between olfactory stimuli, but they perceive different concentrations of a chemical as one stimulus. A recent study suggests how this happens and reveals a neural circuit that mediates olfactory gain control.
